Carl Black almost dragged Lisa out of the boutique. She brushed off his hand and said angrily, "Mr. Black, I am really not happy with you today. You shouldn’t have done this."
He frowned and looked down at her. He never saw her getting mad at him like this before. She used to be a shy and calm girl until now. She never raised her voice at him. He was a little shocked as if he found out another side of Lisa. Though he was shocked, this side of her was also very charming to him. He said calmly, without any change in the expression, "What? Is it unreasonable to spend on my future wife?"
She was speechless.
Why didn't he understand this simple thing? It was her dream. To buy her wedding dress, she saved money for a long time, and he simply ruined it. Now he was arguing with her. Sh
After lunch, they came out of the restaurant and got into the car. Carl Black asked, "Do you want to go shopping or somewhere else?" Lisa thought for a while and replied, "No... Please drop me at Anna's place. I have something to discuss with her." "OK, then I'll stay with you." Lisa was stunned and peered at him. 'Why is this man so clingy today?' She had planned to buy a gift for him since morning, but suddenly, he came from nowhere. Now that finally, she got the opportunity to execute her plan, he wanted to stay with her. How could she let this happen? She pursed her lips into a thin line and refused sternly, "No need..... Don't you have anything to do?"
At night after dinner, Lisa went inside her bedroom and started drawing something. In the meantime, her phone rang. She grabbed her phone and looked at it, only to see Carl Black's number. Her lips curled upwards involuntarily and answered the phone, "Hello." "Have you finished your girly stuff?" He asked mockingly. She chuckled and replied, "Yes." After a few moments of pause, she heard from the other side of the phone, "I have sent you some pictures of invitation cards. You choose and inform me, OK?" "Thank you so much, Mr. Black." "Hmm?" "I mean... It is helpful. I will select and send it to you. OK? "Good."
A tall, lean handsome man walked out of the airport terminal of the capital city. He looked around at his surroundings and took a deep breath. It had been more than a decade last he came here. His expression turned gloomy when past memories flashed in his mind. He saw a man holding his name card outside the terminal. He went towards him and shook his hand after introducing himself. Soon they got in the car and drove away from the airport. On the way, he looked out at the rapidly retreating scenery through the windshield. Lots of things had changed in the city. He was somewhat sad as well as amazed at the same time. He sighed deeply and leaned back on the seat closing his eyes. After half an hour of driving, he reached a luxurious guest house. The person who came to receive him took his luggage and went inside the guest house. He
"Lazy boy... Get up. It's already half past 7. Why are you sleeping till now? Did you forget what day is today?" Helen Black was furious and scolding Mack Black loudly. This was the day of Carl Black and Lisa’s engagement. She had lots of work to do. How could she be relaxed? But seeing Mack Black sleeping till now, she got furious. "Why are you shouting in the early morning?" Mack Black opened his eyes lazily. He had no intention to wake up so early. He took a leave for the engagement ceremony. There was no hurry to wake up. After all, his brother had already hired a wedding planner. What would he do to wake up early? He continued sleeping completely ignoring his mother. Helen Black was helpless. She yelled and knoc
"En... Do you have matching jewelry for this dress?" Anna Green drank a few mouthfuls of juice and watched Lisa inquisitive. Lisa nodded and answered, "Luckily, I have. Let's finish the juice first. We don't have much time." They quickly finished drinking juice and started dressing up. Lisa wore a purple dress with matching jewelry. She looked stunningly gorgeous. Anna Green whistled, "Wow, you are ready to kill Mr. Black today." Lisa blushed at her compliment, and the corner of her lips curled upwards involuntarily. Anna continued to say, "I have to say, Mr. Black has good taste. He chose the best."
When Anna Green ran down hurriedly, she bumped into someone pretty hard. She fell to the ground on her butt while she heard an unpleasant sound of metal clanging. Prong... Prong... Her nose was painful due to the collision, and she rubbed it, looking ahead, only to see a few beer cans lying in front of her. She looked up and saw a tall man looming over her. His expression was somber. She stood up and said frantically, "I am really...." Before she could finish speaking, the man snapped coldly, "Are your eyes buttons? Can't you see ahead and walk?" "I am sorry, I am sorry. I was in a hurry. I didn't see you." "Humph...Can't find any excuse to
Lisa held her hand and walked towards the dining area. There was a grand buffet. She made her sit on a table and said, "Wait here, I will bring your food." She went up to the buffet table and filled a plate. She came back to the table and passed the plate to her. She sat on a chair opposite her and looked at her worriedly, "Can you tell me now what happened to you? You are acting weirdly. I can see that." Anna Green sighed deeply. They had been friends since college and pretty close to each other. She knew she couldn't hide this matter from her any longer. "Someone came to me to ask about Neil. He said he is detective Andrew. But only today I figured out that the man was not Andrew." "What do you mean?" Lisa was shocked. S
Anna Green didn't go out of her house for two days. She thought the psycho killer was waiting for her outside, and once she went out of her house, he would come to kill her. But that morning, she received a call from the principal, and he asked her to go to school. Though she didn't want to go anywhere, there was no way left. She must go to school. How long could she lock herself up inside the house? This was not the solution. After thinking like this, she gathered her courage and decided to go to school. After breakfast, she got ready to go out. However, her steps froze the moment she opened the door. Her body went numb, and the bag slipped away from her hand. The shock was evident on her face. For a few seconds, she couldn't react and kept staring at the person standing in front
“Why are you here?” Instead of answering him, Daniel asked back a question.“You are my son, and it is my right to come and check you.” Thomas Brooke raised his voice slightly, feeling annoyed.“But I don’t want to see your face.” Daniel Brooke turned his head to the other side.“Daniel, I have done all this for the safety of you and the family. Don’t forget that you are engaged with Mr. Mayor’s daughter, and you know well that how rich and powerful he is. It will not take an hour for him to take down our family. If you have given up your madness, nothing would have happened like this.” He sounded irritated.Daniel Brooke sat up on the sickbed and said fiercely, “You are justifying a conspiracy to ki

Bang… Bang… Another two more gunshots sounded loud back to back. Lisa shirked, closing her eyes. Silence swept in the room after that. She could only hear her rapidly beating heartbeat. Slowly she opened her eyes and looked up at Carl Black who was shielding her with his body. She asked in a shaky voice, “Are you alright?” He answered, “Yes, my love.” Thump... Meanwhile, they heard the dull sound of something falling on the floor. They turned to look, only to see Daniel Brooke lying on the floor. Blood was dripping down from his belly. He took the bullet for her. Albert was lying behind him, dead. Derek shot two bullets directly on his head. “Daniel…” Lisa shouted and rushed
On the other end, Daniel Brooke reached the location with Derek before the cops could reach them. Derek’s men spread everywhere in the area. There were many incomplete buildings. They have no idea in which building Albert was hiding. Suddenly a voice came out from Derek’s walkie-talkie, “Two men were seen on the rooftop of the last building to the right side.” “Got it,” Derek answered. They looked up at the last building and saw two men roaming around on the rooftop, inspecting the surroundings. They had guns in their hands. Derek looked at Daniel Brooke, “Now we should go ahead, avoiding their eyes.” Nodding, they approached carefully, hiding behind the stacks of bricks. They saw dozens of men guarding the building when they came
Albert laughed loudly again, “You are smart, Daniel. Did you know why I called you?” He waited for a while but when he didn’t get any answer from Daniel Brooke, he began to say, “Because my men have abducted your beloved woman. And her husband also came following her. Now he is fighting with my man.” He laughed again loudly. Soon his expression changed into a monstrous look, “If you want her alive, come to the abandoned construction site of JK builders alone within an hour. If you delay or you try to trick me, you will lose her forever.” “Don’t touch her.” Daniel Brooke shouted impulsively. “Your problem is with me. She is innocent. Don’t do anything to her. I will come wherever you want.” “See you soon.” The call ended immed
Carl Black chuckled and looked at his mother, “Mom…” Holding her hand, he went to her room. On the other end, after showing all the rooms of the Black villa, Mack Black finally took Lisa to her bedroom, “And this is your bedroom. Go and rest. I hope bro will come in any minute.” Smiling, he waved at her and ushered her inside the room. When Lisa came in, various scenes started playing like a recording in her mind. All the scenes were entangled with each other, and she couldn’t make heads or tails of those. She walked towards the bed in reverie and saw her cry miserably. She felt a sharp pain in her heart, and her breathing quickened. Blinking continuously, she tried to remember what happened in the past.
Turning off the shower, Daniel quickly came out of the bathroom and changed his cloth. Grabbing the car key, he rushed out of his penthouse and drove to the college. Half an hour later, he reached the college and headed to the department of Physics. He blocked the way of a young boy and asked “Hey… Can you show me Professor Black’s cabin?” The boy replied happily, “Sure. Follow me.” Daniel Brooke followed the young man quietly, inspecting the surroundings. He never thought that he would come to meet his arch-rival on his own. He wondered how Carl Black would react to see him. When he was lost in his thoughts, the boy said. “There is Professor Black’s cabin.” The boy stretched his arm and pointed his finger ah
Daniel Brooke threw the gun to Derek and said in his commanding tone, “Call the police and inform Albert’s whereabouts.” With that, he walked out of the house. Derek signaled his men to take care of everything and followed Daniel Brooke. That night the police went to the address that had been given by Kyle Kings, but Albert was nowhere to be found. All his belongings were left which proved his presence. However, before the police could reach him, he ran away. When Daniel Brooke learned about it, he got mad, “You all are useless. This was our golden chance to capture him. All these days he was right under our nose, but we failed to locate him, and now he managed to escape. Find him at any cost before he harms anyone.” He kicked hard on the sofa and cursed loudly, “Fu*
Lisa woke up after a few hours and looked around, but she didn’t find any trace of Carl Black. She panicked and the view of him walking away from her, holding a suitcase came alive in front of her eyes. Grabbing the towel, she wrapped it around her body and walked out of the room. She heard the humming of someone and looked down at the source of the sound, only to see him doing something in the kitchen. It seemed that his mood was good. Lisa’s lips curled up involuntarily and came back to the room. She went to the bathroom to freshen up. After taking a quick shower, she came out and changed her clothes. Last night she didn’t look around the area properly so she went to the balcony and looked outside. There were many tall trees in that area. The chir
